I never thought that I would see my ideas coming out of another person's mind like yours did. All the "I'll eat my last big meal and then start my diet tomorrow" and all the words you said to yourself that kept you gaining weight I was telling myself in the last few years. I'm really living the way you were living when you were at your maximum weight. Fortunately, I'm only 189. But I have 40% body fat and pre-diabetes. I'm quitting all my old habits right now. You gave me so much motivation. I'll start hypnosis tonight. I always had the mp3 but didn't use it much. Thank you very much for sharing your success story. I wish you all the luck in the world for keeping this weight off.

Wow, Stephen, your weight loss is amazing and inspiring. I can relate to so much of it, I could cry. The road looks so long ahead, but I am doing well today, and I'm going to make each day a small victory toward my goal.

Wow Stephen ! Way to go ! I'm turning 41 & have been battling the scale FOREVER. At my age , the it's too late for me comes into play, until I read a story like yours. I WILL try the meditation /visualization . My life is pretty stressful & demanding & this may help me, too. Thanks for sharing & enjoy your new life!

What an amazing story! You are proof that if something isn't working for you, the best thing to do is take a step back and analyze what s really going on so you can do something different. It is sad that so many Americans are obsessed with finding the perfect diet. Of course that never works in the long run. Congratulations!

The story about your journey is remarkable. It left me inspired and motivated to continue to pursue my own dreams. It had some memorable "words of wisdom" within it that I will use to fuel my own pursuits. Congratulations on the possibilites to come!!
